Convert Coulombs to Millicoulombs

Convert Coulombs (C) to Millicoulombs (mC) instantly and accurately.

Conversion Formula

mC = C × 1000

About Coulombs

The coulomb (C) is the SI derived unit of electric charge, equal to the charge transported by a current of 1 A in 1 s. In the 2019 SI revision it is fixed exactly via the elementary charge: 1 C = 1 / (1.602 176 634 × 10⁻¹⁹) e ≈ 6.241 × 10¹⁸ e. Practical benchmarks: a 1 Ah battery stores 3 600 C; a lightning bolt transfers 1-20 C.

About Millicoulombs

The millicoulomb (mC) equals 10⁻³ C, encountered in electroplating thin films, faradaic charge integration in voltammetry, and capacitor discharge testing. Cyclic voltammetry integration of an electrode adsorption peak typically yields 1-100 mC; a 1 mF supercapacitor at 1 V stores exactly 1 mC. 1 mC = 10⁻³ C = 10³ µC.
